More than what you expect

This suv is a very comfortable ride. Lots of room and you sit high enough to see over and around other drivers. The window regultors are a little awkward to use because they are more at your forearm than your hands. So you have to move your arm further back to make the windows go up and down. The power for the 3.5 inline fine is slow at first but once up to speed your cruising in style. My H3 had over 261 thousand miles so anyone worried about high mileage Hummers rest easy. Do a little research on these cars and the history of service and make a sound decision. You can have a really nice suv to go off road or get your children from school. Choice is yours and these are great cars.

BUYER BEWARE

I LOVE HUMMERS. HOWEVER, HUMMERS H3 SHOULD THOROUGHLY BE EXAMINED BY 3RD PARTY INSPECTOR. HAD A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE WITH THIS MODEL, MAKE SURE TO LOOK AT SUNROOF TO MAKE SURE THERE IS NO DRAINAGE PROBLEM, COSTLY ,YOU ONLY KNOW WHEN IT RAINS OR WHEN LOOKING FOR THIS IN ADVANCE, BOUGHT ONE A MONTH AGO AND IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP EVERY WEEK, COSTING OVER $2K IN REPAIRS. DON'T TAKE DEALERS WORD, DO YOUR HOMEWORK PEOPLE. LEARN FROM ME

Decent vehicle, a few fixes

I love the interior , the holders behind the front seats fall off every time someone gets in the backseat ; poor design. Starts no problem; but issues with the brake system , drive shaft , transfer case , some belt squeeking that can't be remedied ; and major clunking noises. Great in high water and off road ; not as great in snow as I anticipated. Anti lock brake system is flawed . Exterior black trim is faded on some parts and not others. Speaker /wiring issues .

I've owned this vehicle for 10 years but had water coming in through the windows because it's been in swamps that deep it's never gotten stuck it's one of the most underrated vehicles ever

Most capable vehicle I've owned.

I drive 4x4s cor a living. My first was a Chevy Blazer K5 and I was always turning a wrench. Next was a Ram 1500 with the little V8. 2 services and transmission later I'm trading it in on a new 2014 Ram 2500 6.4 Hemi. Good truck but not practical for everyday use. I purchased the 06 H3 and have to admit I'm put out by the power, but it's very impressive and more than capable off road. It even impressed some avid 4 wheelers (Cherokee and Toyota's with 37+ inch tires) due to its ability to hang with them. I'm continually being humbled by this vehicle with its lack of up performance by its sheer capacity as a vehicle for off road use.
